BodyGuard 595™Color Vision Operator Manual

Modify Protocol

When you receive your BodyGuard 595 Color Vision™ pump and go to "Modify Protocol

Library" on the main menu for the first time you will see the protocols are blank. On the

first few patients using the BodyGuard 595 Color Vision™ you can edit, add or delete

any of these infusion protocols to tailor the protocols to your service.

This section is probably the most complex of the manual but remember you should only

have to perform this function once for each protocol with each pump whilst you are

setting it up for use on the first few patients. It is possible to adjust the pump’s default

protocols to the one you require, by request from our factory.

Each protocol contains the following data:

 Infusion Mode (PCA, Epidural, Regional)

 Drug/protocol name

 Minimum & maximum patient weight

 Volume to be infused

 Initial rate in ml or mg or mcg per hour (Initial Rate and Protocol Maximum rate

are superseded by the values set in the 'Change Set up Menu), (If MediGuard

is on – Rate can only be entered based on body weight units)

 Protocol Maximum Rate

 Bolus dose and maximum bolus dose (if required)

 Lockout time between boluses and maximum lockout time (if required)

 Maximum clinician (CA) bolus

 Bolus rate

 Hour limit applicable to this regime (if required)

 Keep Vein Open rate (if required)

 Occlusion pressure

 Air-in-line limit

 If MediGuard

is on – maximum MediGuard

rate



NOTE: you can use protocols to set up several commonly used treatment

regimes in your service i.e. same bag, drug name, basal rate but different bolus

volumes or lockout times.



NOTE: after setting up your most common regimes as a protocol set up the next

or last protocol letter as a ‘Tailored’ or one off regime that you can modify for

individual patients who don’t fall within the pre-set protocols. Once the infusion

has been administered for a particular patient you can go back in and change this

for the next or a future patient.



NOTE: each protocol parameters are unique to that protocol. For example if you

use both Ropivacaine and Bupivacaine in your service and one commonly comes

in a 100 ml bag whilst the other is in a 250 ml bag than you can set these bag

sizes as standard for each.
